Filter by:Advanced technology has enabled radiation oncologists to more accurately and precisely target radiation to areas at risk while maximally sparing healthy tissue. Furthermore, there is growing evidence demonstrating both safety and efficacy for SBRT. We propose that these advantages are translatable to the adjuvant treatment of endometrial cancer. We submit that a prescription dose of 30 Gy in 5 fractions, which equates to a 2 Gy equivalent dose (i.e an EQD2) (α/β = 10 Gy) of 48 Gy, compares favorably to the EQD2 delivered standardly for adjuvant treatment (44.25 Gy via 45Gy/25Fx; 50 Gy at vaginal surface for vault brachytherapy) and therefore should be effective and safe dose in the adjuvant setting. Through precision delivery and careful dosimetry the treatment should be safe and well tolerated with minimal impact on patient quality of life.
This study will compare the effects of treatment with nivolumab alone versus those of nivolumab plus the experimental drug BMS-986205. Adding BMS-986208 to nivolumab could shrink the cancer or prevent it from returning, but it could also cause side effects.
This research study is studying an investigational drug as a possible treatment for uterine cancer. The drug involved in this study is: -AZD1775
Carcinosarcomas (CS) (malignant mixed Müllerian tumors) are highly aggressive and rare tumors with a worldwide annual incidence between 0.5-3.3 cases/100.000 women. Gynecological CS, i.e. ovarian CS (OCS) and uterine CS (UCS), have a 5-year overall survival (OS) < 10% and a poor prognosis. After initial treatment (surgery +/- adjuvant radiotherapies +/- chemotherapies (CT)), vast majority of patients relapsed and received diverse CT producing modest benefits, and nearly all patients will die. After first line CT including platinum salt, monotherapy (doxorubicin or paclitaxel) is frequently used for relapsed patients, but the response rate (RR) is <20%, progression-free survival (PFS) <4 months, and OS <1 year. In this unmet need situation, a better knowledge of these aggressive neoplasms is essential to propose new therapeutic options.
DICE is a randomised study recruiting 126 women over 3 years from hospitals in the UK and Germany. Eligible patients will have tissue based diagnosis of advanced/recurrent ovarian cancer (clear cell, endometrioid or high grade serous or carcinosarcoma), have had chemotherapy before, and be platinum-resistant (the cancer has returned/grown significantly during or within 6 months of platinum-containing chemotherapy).
This phase II trial studies how well autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes MDA-TIL works in treating patients with ovarian cancer, colorectal cancer, or pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). Autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes MDA-TIL, made by collecting and growing specialized white blood cells (called T-cells) from a patient's tumor, may help to stimulate the immune system in different ways to stop tumor cells from growing.
The COPELIA trial is evaluating two new tablet medications in endometrial cancer for the first time. It will include 129 women aged 16 years or older with advanced endometrial cancer whose cancer has worsened after their initial chemotherapy treatment. Participants will be allocated at random to one of three groups: 1. The first group (Arm 1) will receive a standard (routine) treatment for patients with endometrial cancer known as paclitaxel. This is a chemotherapy drug that is routinely used to treat patients with different cancers including ovarian, breast, lung and endometrial cancer. Paclitaxel works by stopping the growth of cancer cells. 2. The second group (Arm 2) will receive the standard paclitaxel treatment once a week in addition to a new drug called cediranib. Cediranib is a tablet medication and works by blocking new blood vessel formation. Cediranib has been tested in women with endometrial cancer before but not alongside chemotherapy treatment. 3. The third group (Arm 3) will receive two new tablet medications, cediranib and olaparib. Olaparib works by preventing cancer cells repairing DNA effectively. The use of olaparib and cediranib together has been shown to be effective in a common type of ovarian cancer but has not been evaluated as a treatment for endometrial cancer before. The main objectives of the COPELIA trial are to work out: 1. Whether the two new treatments, cediranib-paclitaxel (Arm 2) and cediranib-olaparib (Arm 3) are more effective at controlling endometrial cancer than standard paclitaxel chemotherapy (Arm 1) 2. Whether the two new treatments cause more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy 3. How each of these treatments impact on the daily life of women receiving the treatment by asking trial participants to regularly complete quality of life questionnaires 4. Whether we can learn how these treatments work in women with endometrial cancer by taking some additional blood tests for research.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of mirvetuximab soravtansine and rucaparib camsylate in treating participants with endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back. Drugs such as mirvetuximab soravtansine are antibodies linked to a toxic substance and may help find certain tumor cells and kill them without harming normal cells. Rucaparib camsylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving mirvetuximab soravtansine and rucaparib camsylate may work better in treating participants with recurrent endometrial, ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes LN-145 (LN-145) or LN-145-S1 works in treating patients with ovarian cancer, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), anaplastic thyroid cancer, osteosarcoma, or other bone and soft tissue sarcomas that do not respond to treatment (refractory) or that has come back (relapsed). LN-145 is made by collecting and growing specialized white blood cells (called T-cells) that are collected from the patient's tumor. LN-145-S1 is made using a modified process that chooses a specific portion of the T-cells. The T cells may specifically recognize, target, and kill the tumor cells.
This is a Phase 1 B feasibility trial with Galunsertib, a TGFβ inhibitor, in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel in patients with newly diagnosed, persistent or recurrent carcinosarcoma of the uterus or ovary. The objective of the study is to determine whether this drug combination is safe for this patient population and to see if it is effective in shrinking cancers, keeping them from growing or helping patients live longer.
